The 3 types of Bounty Hunter armor

This type has stats and mods (sometimes) was equippable by any profession until the armor category was fixed, it also has an option from radial menu ("~" key) called "Dismantle" if you do that you turn it into a Post-CUBounty Hunterarmor part. It cannot be used as component for Mandalorian armor component unless you dismantle it !

This type can be looted from any Black Sun (outside Death Watch Bunker) or from the Treasure Map chests and cannot be equipped. It is an item, not an armor part like others. The item can be used as component for Mandalorian armor crafting. To enter the Death Watch Crafting room you need that version.

Crafted from schematics looted during Bounty Hunter elite level missions, that have been learned by a Master Armorsmith. It has stats, of course, and is customizable during crafting like any other armor. But, it cannot be used for crafting Mandalorian armor.
